2.6.10 no boot

[Marcello Stanisci]

Dear All,

I built a linux kernel 2.6.10. When grub tries to execute it the
system shows the message:

Uncompressing Linux..

and then reboots in a very Spartan way.

My suspects are that a modern bootloader tries to boot an older
(although respectful) kernel. In facts grub does some
preliminar, and mysterious to me, work prior to launch the kernel.

In the following links you will find my .config and an excerpt of my
grub.cfg. As an additional information, the same happens on two
machines of mine (both having a debian wheezy), so the problem should
not be related to hardware.

.config -->    http://www.polarhome.com:753/~marcello/.config
grub.cfg -->  http://www.polarhome.com:753/~marcello/grub.cfg

In just one word: HELP

Thanks in Advance.
